Could the 1900 listing be in error (as to age and sex) and might this actually be Leroy?
7. Leroy McLemore (1.Walter1) was born on 25 Nov 1901 in Mississippi; died on 4 Jun 1961; was buried in Highland Cemetery, Hattiesburg, Forrest County, Mississippi. Notes:
A Leroy McLemore is listed on the SSDI, with a birthdate of June 25, 1902. However, he was assigned a number (425-10-7724) through a Request for E/R Action rather than completing an application for a number, and no further identifying information, other than his name and birthdate, is shown.
Rebecca Mullinix reports that he was killled in a robbery in Eastabuthie, MS.8. Celeste "Lessie" Amelia McLemore (1.Walter1) was born on 3 May 1905 in Mississippi; died on 21 Jun 1945; was buried in Roseland Park Cemetery, Hattiesburg, Forrest County, Mississippi. Notes:
She appears to have been living with her mother at the time of the 1930 census. Although she was listed as married, no husband was present in the home. She was shown as the mother of James E. MITCHELL, a newborn.
Rebecca Mullinex emailed in July, 2009 that she never knew her grandmother to go by the name Celeste, but instead knew her always as Amelia Lessie McLemore. Rebecca added that "Lessie was born in 1905. She married James Herman Mitchell (born 1907) and had my father, James Edward Mitchell April 5, 1930. She was living with her parents when the 1930 census was taken. She died sometime in the 1940's according to a living nephew - Gene McLemore (he remembered he was away in the army when he recieved the news) but does not know where she is buried or what year she died. The only siblings I knew as a very small child were Walter Amos McLemore (when I was a child, he was referred to as "Uncle Amos") and his wife Inez, and a sister Elma McLemore that we called "Auntie" who lived in the same town as we did for a few years. But being a child, never thought to ask about family history. I remember LeRoy McLemore being killed when I was very young. He was shot in a robbery, I believe, Eastabuthie, MS. down the road from what was called the "Old Place" on Hwy 11.
